The Community Foundation for Greater Atlanta's Fayette Fund was established
in 1994 to help individuals, corporations and foundations respond to the
charitable needs of Fayette County residents.
Through a variety of funds and giving options, we can help donors fulfill
their charitable intentions and leave a lasting legacy for the benefit
of our community. The Fayette Fund offers convenience and expertise for those
who wish to make charitable contributions to nonprofit organizations in
and around the Fayette County area.
Our goals include:
- promoting visionary philanthropy
- building and preserving a collection of endowment funds and
- distributing funds to nonprofit organizations that serve Fayette County
residents.
What programs do we support?
In addition to our local unrestricted Fund, qualified Fayette nonprofits
may be eligible to apply for grants from The Community Foundation's CF’s Common Good Funds (formerly Competitive
Grants Program). Grants awarded from these funds support organizations
working in the following areas:
- Arts
- Community Development

- Education
- Health
- Human Resources

Additional Funding
Through generous contributions from local donors as well as matching
dollars from The Community Foundation, the Fayette Fund offers a
